Hello,

We have some debugging utility routines we're porting from linux that call backtrace(void **bt, int mx). We were encouraged when we found

extern unsigned OSBacktrace(void **bt, unsigned maxAddrs)

in /usr/include/libkern/OSDebug.h, but it comes up as an undefined symbol when we compile (we're using icc on this project, BTW).

There's no man page, grepping the libraries in /usr/lib yielded no clues, and Googling brought up the darwin source, but no examples.... what library do we need to link against to use OSBacktrace()?

I don't know anything about OSBacktrace, but you may want to look at the MoreIsBetter sample code, specifically the MoreBacktrace.h file here: <http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/MoreIsBetter/listing46.html> Last I checked, it only supported PPC. Also, search the net/archives for "MoreBacktrace". -- ____________________________________________________________ Sean McBride, B.
